It is so good to be with you here. I had an AMAZING trip to California last week and cannot wait to share the yoga videos I made there for Yoga Anytime with you.

Today's class is an open-level hatha yoga class focusing on this wonder-filled waning moon time we find ourselves in at present. We call on our capacity to appreciate potential, mystery, darkness and our rebellious spirit in this class. It was a lot of fun to teach and I hope you feel the LOVE of this community of practitioners.

Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your practice here. I appreciate you. Where-ever you are in space and time, I love you for just being here.

Jai Mystery Moon!

Today, I have a vibrant, all-levels yoga class to share with you. We use a few listening techniques to refine our connection to the senses. These practices fall under the umbrella of Pratyahara on the eight-limbed path described by Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras. I am SO glad you are here. Thank you.

The Yoga Sutras say very little about the physical practice, asana. What they do say, however, reveals that to find one's self in the posture (asana, which translates literally to "seat"), one must embody both effort and ease. So often, we neglect the ease. We decide that effort requires more obvious work, so it must be superior. But establishing ease in the posture (on and off the mat) is infinitely more difficult. When we are straining less, we are more susceptible to the thoughts that arise in moments of quiet. Whether you are a new or veteran student, I invite you to approach this sequence (about 25 minutes) with ease: hold your body at ease, let your breath flow easily in and out of the body and go easy on yourself when thoughts arise. I do hope you love this practice.

My dears, I thank you so so much for joining me on this podcast journey. I appreciate your support and hope you will get in touch with your yoga stories. {Hello to Patrizia in Switzerland! Thank you for the email! Welcome back Peggy!!}
